Trucks Gone Wild Truck Tug-O-Wars

In this episode we cruise back over to the Trucks Gone Wild Truck Tugs at The Barn country bar in Sanford, FL. It was kind of a slow start but once the night set in the mega trucks started lighting up! We also do a little rundown on the ins and out of different transfer cases, run the hell outta the Twin Turbo Duramax Killin It Mega Truck, and get the inside scoop from the driver of the Short Bus Wheelie Poppin Teacher Plowing Mega Truck.

Hell yea man I love your content hope to see you at west Florida and if not definitely at plant bamboo!

[@KillinItLifestyle]

Thanks for the support brother!

Them leaf springs were dancing on the front of spare parts oh my

[@KillinItLifestyle]

Thing was gettin super rowdy!

[@RandyMartin-jx8yi]

Those springs are 20+ years old what u expect, been bogging them since early 2000s.

I’m a die hard Ford man but I love to see the Killin it truck win especially if it’s against buddys roofing. I don’t have nothing against buddys truck cause it always pulls good no matter who he is matched with that truck is just a solid built rig and he is about as close of a match for the Killin it truck as any but I still like seeing the Killin it truck win

[@KillinItLifestyle]

Haha hell ya! Thanks bro!

[@bigcountrysgarage2.030]

Dude how much Redbull did you drink. I have the most insane idea for a Mega Truck to put a Nitro Altered motor in the bed to end all tugs even against the Internet Breaker Truck

[@KillinItLifestyle]

Hell ya! That’d be badass!

[@bigcountrysgarage2.030]

@@KillinItLifestyle I'd call it GAMEOVER, but it's just an idea but I could never build something like that as poor as I am. Can't even finish my project Mustang that I've have going on 12 years now.

Mr killing it I was curious what kind of gauge is that on ur rollbar I'm looking to buy some just curious what those are keep on killing it brother

[@KillinItLifestyle]

So I currently am running Autometer mechanical gauges to monitor boost between the turbos, boost to the engine, and oil temp. Then I have an Edge CTS Insight digital gauge below them for EGTs, intake temps, load %, fuel pressure, and battery voltage. However Ive had nothing but problems with the Edge. It will work fine in normal cruising but as soon as I lay into the truck good in a mud hole or on the tug pad it always glitches out. So I’m going to be swapping the Edge Insight for an AEM monitor as soon as I have the money.

Big truck vs truck 😁

[@KillinItLifestyle]

[@shrapnelsbunker736]

[@JLCwakeboardingFL]

Wait. Did I miss it? Thought it was this weekend?

[@KillinItLifestyle]

It was. This was a previous tug event that I never got the video. I just put up a video from the most recent event as well.

Thank you!

[@parrishinvestigations952]

I have a question. How do you afford all of that? You seem blue collar, like me. But holy crap bro 😆

[@KillinItLifestyle]

There’s a few important factors. First and foremost, I have extreme kick*ss friends and sponsors that help me out all the time. Second I do a lot of the work myself which saves tons of money. Finally, I have a few different income sources I’ve set up over the years that do require a lot of *ss busting behind the scenes, but they help me afford what I do. You gotta also keep in mind that it didn’t all happen overnight. Just the first version of my truck was a 2 year process of saving money and buying 1 part at a time as I could afford it then 1 year of actually building it. Then we’ve constantly been upgrading it over the 5 years we’ve had it as a mega truck (I daily drove Killin It for the 6 years prior to it becoming a mega truck). So hopefully that gives you some idea on how you could do it as well 🤘.

Your truck is beautiful 🍻🤠👌

Thank you!

[@dirtylooks66]

The clearance between the gears that you are describing is called backlash

[@KillinItLifestyle]

Yes it is

[@RandyMartin-jx8yi]

Backlash is a play between tooth surfaces of paired gears in mesh. Mating gears also have a clearance (play) vertical to tooth depth. This is called Tip and Root Clearance, the distance between tooth root and the tooth tip of mating gears.
